RE: HOWTO make syslog and zensyslog coexist on an RHEL machine

Great tutorial!

Just one thing, you might like to check the "Configure iptables" step of the 2nd method.

The OUTPUT REDIRECT list command should have a space:

iptables --table nat --list OUTPUT

And my output looks like this (OUTPUT and REDIRECT are different in your example):

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
REDIRECT udp -- anywhere anywhere udp dpt:syslog redir ports 514

zensyslog won't start for me at the moment, but that's not your fault; I must be doing something wrong...

Thanks again!
